White and non-black people are being told not to share any of the numerous Oprah Winfrey memes from her bombshell interview with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle - because they are a form of 'digital blackface'.
The Slow Factory Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to social and environmental justice, this week issues a warning about digital blackface, describing it as an online phenomenon where white and non-black people share GIFs and photos of black people to express emotion, and stating that it often perpetuates negative stereotypes that they are 'aggressive, loud, and sassy.'
In an Instagram post, the organization used an Oprah meme as a direct example of 'digital blackface' - sparking a furious debate in the comments where some agreed with the message, while others hit back, claiming that banning non-black people from posting the memes equates to 'black erasure'.

Back in the Jim Crow era, Democrats were just openly racist.
In the 60s the Democrats were reluctantly convinced to agree with the rest of us that being racist is a bad thing.
Now the Democrats insist that the meaning of the word racist change so that they can continue being racist, and to not be racist in the same way that they are is what will now be called racist.
Would call it mental gymnastics, but really its not. Its just always assuming they are right and not bothering if it makes any sense.
Ok - this racist BS needs to stop.
Pure insanity!

Consistency!
Regards,
I loved that movie. It was hilarious.
I agree.
It’s just getting totally ridiculous and now they have to invent new terms like “ digital blackface?”
Give me a f’ing break.
Oprah is not happy with the color of her skin and that’s her problem.
If it weren’t for all the white women watching her over the years, she wouldn’t be the rich, thankless bitch that she is.
Where would she be right now if her ancestors had be left in Africa?
She is a whining psychologically disturbed individual who has become a pain in the ass and has not produced anything anyone really wants to watch in 12 years because it’s all about racism now and people are sick of her.
this comes on the heals of Sparkles issuing a wierd proclamation that ‘old white men’ shouldn’t discuss her row with the Royals. And follows earlier in the week week two europeans being told white people couldn’t translate black poems into other languages.
The first, Dutch translator Marieke Lucas Rijneveld, ‘resigned’ in complete confusion, and the second, Catalanian Víctor Obiols, who had completed the work, was told his translation was not acceptable because they wanted a “woman...and preferably black.”
To which he replied, :”.. if I cannot translate a poet because she is a woman, young, black, an American of the 21st century, neither can I translate Homer because I am not a Greek of the eighth century BC. Or could not have translated Shakespeare because I am not a 16th-century Englishman.”

this new credo that blacks are unreproachable and exclusive, smacks of the Muslim supremacy that took over Spain a few centuries ago and this is taking over Europe as we speak.
Using that logic, then anytime I see someone advertising their company as a black-owned business, then as a white person I should not buy any of their products or services, because that would be engaging in commercial blackface.
This is a new group in town. They are to be called Super Racists. They are Super Racists because they believe everything is racist even the air you breathe.
Whereas you might say f...you to your ordinary, run of the mill racist that objectifies one particular ethnic group, the proper sign off to a Super Racist is f....you, you Super Racist.
So to Oprah, the cuckold, and his whore, I say, “ F....you, you Super Racists!”.
Tom Cruise was electrifying!
Can we call them persons of color?
So, I guess mentioning the irony that Oprah owns an estate on Orcas Island, and often resembles them, is forbidden to us white folks ???
